I have shot 5 porcupines this year but 0 got mowed over. I might bring the mower with me. I had some realy high weeds and I could not see the bolders.I worked the mower hard for two days.

Looks like a few carb rebuilds, Wally and Larry being rebuilding carbs. I'm considering doing one but might have too much on my plate. Cecil could you pick me up a kit at Columbia Tractor? Are they still $75 or so?

Wally will be bringing the cloth wiring harness he made, with enough extra wiring and connectors to show the folks how to make another harness.

Two TC units rebuilds are still onboard. Looks like Bob's shop should have alot of activity.

Chris I have a spare TM kit for $46 if you would rather have that. A lot more stuff and cheaper. Only difference is the needle valve.

Less than a week to go for the minifest.

I am finishing a woodworking project so that the workshop will be all clear for cub projects. Also today I will be splitting my cub so that we're ready to work on the clutch.

BobinCT copied the latest cub manual file for me at Cecil's and if anyone would like a copy please bring a 2 gb thumb drive on Saturday.

I have another person coming, with a cub, who needs points and condenser installed in his mag. Cecil has been volunteered to assist him. Name is Ross MacVicar, from Plymouth, Ma. Met him at a small show we did, at a Lions club festival, on Sunday. Another SouthEastern Massachusetts cubber! Ed

OK for the bad news. I can't get both tractors on the trailer because of the mounted implements. The one with the cultivators has to go as I think it is sold. Therefore I will be leaving the saw cub behind.
